Saturn Card


Self-diagnosis, reading, debating behavior
I am somewhere in the autism spectrum
I am

I share many of the characteristics of Asperger’s,
But my poetry is like an odd coping mechanism
I feel pretending I understand other’s feelings or thoughts
The older I get the more I feel I only know my own

I project
The expansive universe warehoused in my cells
To metaphors and analogies of the other’s soul
Playing out in these streets of fire

The poetry is a massive call to arms
To attempt to decipher what is behind the fields of silence
Women who do not wish to speak or do and I cannot comprehend
I insert profound waylays of writing forged in solitary

To unravel the hodgepodge of woven social tapestry
Poor man’s food of love starving for connection
So very few friends and lovers pained to ignite
Wanting not to have to endure the confusing world of misfit toys

Who goes with who; what goes with what?
This poetry is a tool box to supplement the absence of capability
The obsession with holding on to what was said once in principles
Like welded rods of selective memory raking

There is no cure only a mental difference for life
Always alien 

Afraid to show my Saturn card
